riend Mark says it will cost Cody less money if he saves for 3 months instead of using the credit card. Is Mark correct? Mark is correct.
If Cody uses the credit card, he will have to pay interest during each month in which he does not pay off the balance of the card. If he saves money, he will not have to pay interest.

ANSWER: Mark is correct

EXPLANATION: Mark's idea was to save Cody from paying interest if he swipes his credit card and his idea to save money for 3 months was correct. Cody needs to save money for 3 months to save money enough for the stereo. If he swipes the credit card, he will have to pay interest for 3 months or as long as he saves up enough money to repay the credit card bill. So, if avoid the interest payment, it is a safer idea for Cody to save money for 3 months and then buy the stereo.

I would agree that Cody ideally would save up enough money to pay for the stereo to avoid interest charges on the credit card ie to avoid the 12% interest. But the only thing is, that he may charge the credit card for convenience of paying as long as he pays the balance all off before the end of the month, then he also will pay no interest.

When SW International declared a dividend of $20,000,000, its market value increased from $8 billion to $8.5 billion. However, it lost a chance to reinvest $20,000,000 in the research and development of a new product which would have earned a profit of $200 million. Thus, this $200 million is referred to as SW International's-T<u>his is the Opportunity cost of the S.W international</u>

<u />

Explanation:

The term opportunity cost refer to the profit  that is given up to achieve another thing.

Lets consider the example in this we can analyse the fact that SW international made an alternative choice of declaring the dividend rather than utilizing the money in R&D for a new project .Thus the amount $20,000,000 is forgone in order to achieve the $ 85 million market value.

<u>Thus the $200 million is referred to as the Opportunity Cost.</u>

Smithson Company uses a job-order costing system and has two manufacturing departments— Molding and Fabrication. The company pro
vazorg [7]

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

1)

<u>a) First, we need to calculate the total estimated overhead:</u>

Total overhead= 1,100,000 + (5*50,000)= 1,350,000

<u>Now, we can determine the overhead rate:</u>

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 1,350,000/50,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $27 per machine hour

<u>b) </u>

Job D-75:

Total cost= direct material + direct labor + allocated overhead

Total cost= 700,000 + 360,000 + 27*20,000

Total cost= $1,600,000

Job C-200:

Total cost= 550,000 + 400,000 + 27*30,000

Total cost= $1,760,000

c) Selling price= 150% of manufacturing costs

Job D-75= 1,600,000*1.5= $2,400,000

Job C-200= 1,760,000*1.5= $2,640,000

d) COGS= beginning finished inventory + cost of goods manufactured - ending finished inventory

COGS=  0 + (1,600,000 + 1,760,000) - 0

COGS= $3,360,000

<u>2) </u>

<u>a) </u>

Molding= (800,000/20,000) + 5= $45 per machine hour

Assembly= (300,000/30,000) + 5= $15 per machine hour

<u>b) </u>

Job D-75:

Total cost= 700,000 + 360,000 + 45*20,000

Total cost= $$1,960,000

Job C-200:

Total cost= 550,000 + 400,000 + 15*30,000

Total cost= $1,400,000

<u>c) </u>

Job D-75= 1,960,000*1.5= $2,940,000

Job C-200= 1,400,000*1.5= $2,100,000

<u>d)</u> COGS= 0 + (1,960,000 + 1,400,000) + 0

COGS= $3,360,000
